      Pros

      Amazing, smart, fun, and quirky colleagues Great brand name on your resume Open and transparent management The food, of course

      Cons

      Google is becoming more hierarchical. You can move up through the ranks, but if you start at entry-level, it will take you 15+ years to get to senior management. Use it as a stepping stone to another job outside the company or move laterally and gain experience in different roles

      Pros

      Free food! Awesome people! This company just knows what it is doing. No other explanation than that. From the top down you will feel like you are part of something great and ground-breaking.

      Cons

      Sometimes a little TOO fun at work.

      Pros

      1. Rapid career growth atleast 3/4 levels. 2. Lots of cutting edge technologies (today it might be Google's internal one, but it will have industry wise visibility). 3. Lots of smart people around. 4. Lots of fun and facility in office. No other company can match half of that for sure.

      Cons

      1. Everybody is very very career focused, they mostly dont have any other aspiration in life. So they spent a lot of hour in office. And it creates tremendous peer pressure. 2. 80% of the current employee are college hires in last 1/2/3 years. Also there are lots of food and facilities in office, so they spent days and nights in office, even weekends. 3. If you want a stable work pressure, with stable work life balance, and other interest than the job, this is not your place for sure. 4. If you have 5-10 years of experience, and want to join Google, as your career pick, it will be hard to sustain it, coz if you think you will spend stable work hours, and dont need promotion etc, you will be odd man out, and your feedbacks will be bad. 5. Middle management is not that efficient, they all hired/get promoted because they are all great developers, now managing different people, getting most out of them, etc are not their cup of tea.
